The following should work.

  skewt_bkgd = skewT_BackGround (wks, skewtOpts)
  draw (skewt_bkgd)

[1]

  skewt_data_1 = skewT_PlotData(wks, skewt_bkgd, p1,tc1,tdc1,z1 \
                                   , wspd1,wdir1, dataOpts)
  draw (skewt_data_1)

  skewt_data_2 = skewT_PlotData(wks, skewt_bkgd, p2,tc2,tdc2,z2 \
                                   , wspd2,wdir2, dataOpts)
  draw (skewt_data_2)

  frame(wks)

or

[2] p[*,*] ie 2D

  do n=0,N-1
     skewt_data = skewT_PlotData (wks, skewt_bkgd, p(n,:),tc(n,:),tdc(n,:),z(n,:) \
                                       , wspd(n,:),wdir(n,:), dataOpts)
     draw (skewt_data)
  end do

  frame(wks)
